Abstract

In a staple clinching mechanism in a stapler wherein legs (2a) of a staple (2) driven in by a driving mechanism are bent in a first direction after the legs (2a) of the staple (2) are passed through stacked work sheets (P), the staple clinching mechanism includes: a pair of movable clinchers (6); and a pair of curved bend guiding surfaces (9a,9b), for guiding bending the legs of the staple while the movable clinchers (6) are bending the legs (2a) of the staple, wherein one of the bend guiding surfaces (9a) is inclined in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
